A Multi-Mode Rehabilitation Robot With Magnetorheological Actuators Based on Human Motion Intention Estimation.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Aug 22, 2019
Lower extremity paralysis has become common in recent years, and robots have been developed to help patients recover from it. This paper presents such a robotic system that allows for two working modes, the robot-active mode and human-active mode. Th...
Design and Characterization of a Quasi-Passive Pneumatic Foot-Ankle Prosthesis.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Apr 28, 2017
The majority of commercially available passive prosthetic feet are not capable of providing joint mechanics that match that of the intact human ankle. Due to their cantilever design, their stiffness characteristics contrast with what has been observe...
Robust Control of a Cable-Driven Soft Exoskeleton Joint for Intrinsic Human-Robot Interaction.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Mar 1, 2017
A novel, cable-driven soft joint is presented for use in robotic rehabilitation exoskeletons to provide intrinsic, comfortable human-robot interaction. The torque-displacement characteristics of the soft elastomeric core contained within the joint ar...
A Wearable Hip Assist Robot Can Improve Gait Function and Cardiopulmonary Metabolic Efficiency in Elderly Adults.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Feb 6, 2017
The aims of this paper were to investigate the effectiveness of a newly developed wearable hip assist robot, that uses an active assist algorithm to improve gait function, muscle effort, and cardiopulmonary metabolic efficiency in elderly adults. Thi...
A review on the mechanical design elements of ankle rehabilitation robot.
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Part H, Journal of engineering in medicine
May 14, 2015
Ankle rehabilitation robots are developed to enhance ankle strength, flexibility and proprioception after injury and to promote motor learning and ankle plasticity in patients with drop foot. This article reviews the design elements that have been in...
Once-per-step control of ankle-foot prosthesis push-off work reduces effort associated with balance during walking.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
May 1, 2015
BACKGROUND: Individuals with below-knee amputation have more difficulty balancing during walking, yet few studies have explored balance enhancement through active prosthesis control. We previously used a dynamical model to show that prosthetic ankle ...
Robust Optimal Design of Energy Efficient Series Elastic Actuators: Application to a Powered Prosthetic Ankle.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jun 1, 2019
Design of rehabilitation and physical assistance robots that work safely and efficiently despite uncertain operational conditions remains an important challenge. Current methods for the design of energy efficient series elastic actuators use an optim...
A Support Vector Regression Approach for Continuous Prediction of Ankle Angle and Moment During Walking: An Implication for Developing a Control Strategy for Active Ankle Prostheses.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jun 1, 2019
Lower limb amputations impair normal locomotion. This calls for the use of prosthetic devices to restore the lost or disabled functionality. Most of the commercially available prostheses offer only passive assistance with limited capacity. On the oth...
Preliminary study of a robotic foot-ankle prosthesis with active alignment.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2017
Robotic prosthetic foot-ankle prostheses typically aim to replace the lost joint with revolute joints aimed at replicating normal joint biomechanics. In this paper, a previously developed robotic ankle prosthesis with active alignment is evaluated. I...
